A True Friend (Poem)

A True Friend

A Poem by: Ashley Montgomery

                            A true friend never walks away
                                A true friend will always stay
                             A true friend looks out for you

                           A true friend will guard your secrets
                                 Like a precious gift
                             A true friend is there for you
                               To give you a helpful lift

                           A true friend tries to make you smile
                              Tries to replace that frown
                             They may not always succeed
                             But they rarely let you down

                             These arms for you are open
                             This heart for you does care
                             And when I think you need me
                              I'll try to always be there

                                I'll listen to your fears
                                I promise not to laugh
                              Comfort your falling tears
                              I'll make this friendship last

                             I'll keep you near to my heart
                               I'll always hold you dear
                             Even when we're miles apart
                               Even when you're here

                                 I hope I am to you
                               Everything you are to me
                              For the friendship we have
                               Is a special one indeed.
